Dust off your favorite John Tesh jingle - it's time for some '90s NBA nostalgia! While a certain number 23 has stolen the headlines, the undercards in this year's Basketball Hall of Fame class are not so shabby themselves. With David Robinson and John Stockton (along with Jerry Sloan and women's coach Vivian Stringer) joining his Airness in Springfield for the induction on Friday, September 11th, it's fair to ask: is this the best basketball Hall of Fame class ever?
Consider - John Stockton is the all-time NBA career leader in assists and steals; David Robinson is a former MVP and two-time champion; Jerry Sloan was a former All-Star in the Association himself before going on to coaching the pick and roll to perfection in Utah for the last twenty years; Vivian Stringer is the third-winningest coach in women's NCAA history, and is the first coach to take three different women's programs to the Final Four. And we haven't even gotten to this guy yet.
So what would Jordan say? I'm guessing he'd be speechless.
